Abstract
Germanosilicate film waveguides fabricated by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition have been shown to possess high sensitivity towards W induced index changes. As an illustration of possible future applic ations, direct point-to-point writing of buried singlemode channel wav eguides using a focused, Continuous wave, UV laser beam is demonstrate d.
